Abstract

Our results indicate both the safety and effectiveness of the butterfly technique in mitral valve repair for posterior leaflet prolapse. This is a novel technique to control the resultant height of the repaired leaflet without annular reduction. The butterfly technique can be safely applied to a range of lesions with varying degrees of leaflet redundancy without introducing risk of SAM.
